I took a smooth solo summer drive in a convertable past the crumbling mansions of the Gold Coast. I was also in the middle of the break-up and was feeling profound.

Lyrics
A Sucker's Worry
Cruising up and down the Gold-coast
got a lot on your mind today
like figuring out what you're gonna do about tomorrow
the joy ride is over and you're craving for more from above
never got to live those housewife lives
you're always fantasizing of
you, you're always saying you're fine no matter how bad things are
regrets now they're growing
and the money's not flowing like it used to
you'd sell your soul to get out
but you refuse to
the jaded life you're used to
long flights and stage frights
slow comfortable screws with wannabe playwrights
never thought you'd be hearing you're last rights so soon
you, you're always saying you're fine no matter how bad things are
crossing yet another line and like that it's all , it's all of my business
smoking again, like it feeds you
i've got no cures for what ails you and you're running out of time
a thousand year old story for freaks and normal who cry
tell me what good have you sworn you're integrity by
